Verdict

It’s proved folly to ignore the Skelton yard of late and although RED TORNADO is upped 7lb and in a deeper race than when winning his first race for a couple of years last time he does look to have a good chance of following up here. Mister Fizz is a similar type having taken advantage of a much reduced mark for his first win for three years last time but this looks a stronger gig than last time in which to try and follow-up and he’s up 10lb. Both Sleep Easy and Balinure ought to capable of winning something like this but don’t really convince with the most interesting runner Instant Karma who has fallen to very hospitable mark if he can find a little more form over a trip that should suit.
